John was THE absolute best. He was wise, hard working and knew what really mattered. His family and friends. I will miss working with him, talking with him and will be at a loss without him. I pray strength and peace for his family and friends. He will be dearly missed always.

Antonelli family,
I am sorry to hear about the loss of my Xaverian classmate and newly discovered third cousin. I had no idea that John was related to me via John and Rita Hartin. John was the nephew of my great grandfather Thomas Hartin. Wishing you all the blessings and heartfelt sympathy from family and classmate.

Dear Mollie and your entire family. I am so sorry to hear this heartbreaking news. My prayers are with you and your entire family. I did not know Johnny, but I too am an XBHS alumnus, so I feel like I know him in a sense. And if you are any reflection of the kind of guy he was, which I'm sure you are, he must have been a great one. Take good care and know that your friends at State Street have you in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers.

I had the pleasure of working with John for eight years at State Street. His zest for life was second to none. I shared an office with him and heard first hand many stories of his trips to the Vineyard, Saratoga and the Superbowl. At the time he said that was his favorite sports memory, watching the Pats comeback against the Falcons with his dad. Johns most proud moment was becoming a dad himself. The world is a lesser place without him, our thoughts and prayers are with all of the Antonelli and Murphy families today.
